Dear Rabbi K. Krenlin,

I send the lines of this letter in the desire to bless you upon your having begun work as rabbi in Lithuania.

Lithuania is a historic location famous for Torah studies and the influence of that activity is significant in the Jewish world even now.

The Holocaust destroyed the major portion of the community, but thanks to G_d the community exists, and so the story of the Jews in Lithuania has not ended.

I understand the challenges which await you. You must solve them honorably.

May G_d help you.

I would gladly, as much as I am able, help with spreading the Light of the Torah.

Sincerely,

Rabbi David Lau,
Chief Rabbi, Israel
